History

When Ballivián assumed office, he assigned all ministerial duties to Division General José María Pérez de Urdininea, who acted as a temporary minister general until a proper cabinet was formed. It took 21 days, longer than expected, to appoint a full council of three ministers, which finally happened on October 18, 1841. The Ministry of Public Instruction remained unfilled for more than a year until it was reestablished on November 04,1842. Additionally, the responsibility for foreign affairs was transferred from the interior to the Ministry of Public Instruction.

Two future presidents and one former president, José María Pérez de Urdininea (1828), Eusebio Guilarte (1847–1848), and Tomás Frías (1872–1873; 1874–1876) were members of this cabinet.
